A Bibliometric Analysis to Examine the Use of Space Syntax on Sustainability Studies
Sürdürülebilirlik Çalışmalarında Mekân Dizim Kullanımını İrdeleyen Bibliyometrik Bir Analiz
Keywords:
Sustainability, Space syntax, Bibliometric analysis, Sürdürülebilirlik, Mekân dizimi, Bibliyometrik analizAbstract
The concept of sustainability has made a significant impact on various disciplines in recent years, standing at the center of scientific research in many different fields. This study used the bibliometric analysis method to shed light on the relationship between the space syntax method used in urban planning, urban design, and architecture and the concept of sustainability. Bibliometric analysis was conducted on bibliometric information obtained from publications using the search terms “sustain*” and “space syntax” in the Scopus and Web of Science Core Collection databases. Based on the findings obtained from the analysis of publications discussing both the concepts of space syntax and sustainability, influential authors in this field, citation information and general information about the concepts discussed together with these fields are provided. In the last 10 years, there has been an increase in interest in publications exploring the relationship between space syntax and sustainability. It is expected that this field will provide increasing research potential in the future alongside different branches of academic study.
